Dr. Jack Britt

 
Dr. Jack Britt, Vice President for Institutional Advancement for the University, is a native of Fairmont, NC. He received his Bachelor of Science, his Master of Arts in Administration, and Education Specialist Sixth Year degree from East Carolina University, and his Education Doctorate from NOVA University.

After graduation from East Carolina, Britt worked as a teacher/coach in the Raleigh City Schools and served in the U. S. Army before going to Cumberland County as a teacher in 1955. He remained there for 34 years. He worked his way up in the Cumberland County school system with ever increasing responsibilities which included Supervisor, Assistant Superintendent, Deputy Superintendent, and finally serving over eight years in the Superintendent’s position.

Dr. Britt came to work at Campbell University in 1989 after retiring as superintendent of the Cumberland County Schools.

Jack Britt was nationally recognized for his leadership in the public schools of his community, state, and nation. He has served on the National Association of Federally Impacted Schools Board of Directors, as well as in three entities of the State Department of Public Instruction-the Superintendent’s Accreditation Task Force, the State Facilities Standards Task Force, and the Ten Largest School Districts Committee.

Dr. Britt has been afforded many honors during his career, but the three most recent have set him apart from all others. The Cumberland County School System has named a new state-of-the-art high school in his honor, the Jack Britt High School. Britt was named the North Carolina Baptist Fundraiser of the Year for 1998. And he was a 2001 inductee of the East Carolina University Educators Hall of Fame, which was established to honor “influential educators and lifelong facilitators of learning.”
